  • Benefits
  • Specific services they offer.
  • Fee schedules, if and when appropriate.
  • Criteria for eligibility.
  • Application process.
  • Availability of transportation.
• Discuss integration of these resources into a plan of care.
• Discuss potential advantages and disadvantages for vulnerable populations in seeking these resources.

Support your responses with examples and information from library resources, textbook and lectures.
